The long wait until the final day of Athletics in @trinbago2023 was worth it for Anna Gardiner (Peter Morgan) who performed well above her ranking in humid conditions to finish an excellent 5th in the 3000m 👏 @GoTeamNI @AthleticsNI

The two fastest times of Toby Thompson’s career within 2 hours is no mean feat but leaves him agonisingly 0.02 short of making the final. For context his heat time of 21.44 is 0.01 short of defending champion Aaron Sexton’s @AthleticsNI U18 record 🚀 @GoTeamNI

What. A. Run @ciaramageean 🔥

The best, bravest run of @ciaramageean's career as she wins European 1500m silver behind the magnificent Laura Muir. Muir was a world silver medallist last month. Ennaoui, who won bronze, was fifth in the world final, and Mageean just finished between them. Stunning stuff.

On the eve of day 1 of the @birminghamcg22 Track & Field action, I must mention @GoTeamNI Marathon Coach Jackie Newton who has taken time out of her busy schedule to help the 26.2M athletes and our coaching team. As always a true friend of Athletics in NI 🙏
